That's...
Bai Muxiao and Bai Muyan were about to leave, but they met Nangong Yue and his party who had just arrived at the Prayer Forest.
"Cousin Xiao."
"Cousin Yue, cousin-in-law, cousin Xin..."
A trace of surprise flashed in Bai Muxiao's eyes. It was a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet Nangong Yue, Xiao Yi and Nangong Xin here.
Bai Muyan was overjoyed. Although she didn't know Fu Yunyan and others, she knew the identities of Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue as soon as she heard Bai Muxiao's title. They were the prince and concubine of Zhennan. . The young people who were with them all seemed to be of noble birth.
Bai Muyan forced herself to calm down, her trip to Jialan Temple today was really not in vain. Not only did she meet a handsome young man, but she also had such an opportunity!
Nangong Yue also didn't expect to meet Bai Muxiao here, and was slightly surprised. It was such an unlucky coincidence.
After all, Bai Muxiao is also Nangong Yue's cousin. Now that they have met, a little greeting is inevitable. Bai Muxiao also introduced Yuan Yuyi and Han Qixia to Bai Muyan one by one.
The head of Liushuang County, Miss Han from Prince Qi’s Mansion, Miss Fu Liu from Princess Yongyang’s Mansion...
The names were so bombarded that Bai Muyan could hardly react. She was so happy that she almost fainted. She would have to have a good talk with her mother Yu later.
Bai Muyan saluted everyone one by one, and her flattering and attentive behavior made Bai Muxiao feel ridiculed in her heart. She also hoped that her natal family would be strong, but it was a pity that none of them could support them.
"Cousin Yue, are you here to pray for blessings too?" Bai Muxiao smiled faintly, neither cold nor hot, but her etiquette was so polite that no one could fault her.
"Exactly." Nangong Yue also smiled distantly like her.
Outsiders may not be able to tell, but the two cousins know very well that the gap between them is like a natural chasm that cannot be eliminated.
Yuan Lingbai and Yuan Yuyi secretly exchanged glances. Although they did not have the chance to attend the palace banquet a few days ago, everything that happened at the palace banquet had long been known among the officials and aristocratic families in the royal capital. It spread.
Although there are many talented women in the royal capital, they still have to admit that Nangong Yue, this cousin, is really extraordinary. Apart from anything else, I'm afraid there will be something good going on at Jinxinhui this time.
For ladies of Yuan Yuyi, Fu Yunyan and Han Qixia's level, they don't actually need anything to make themselves better, so the Jinxin Club is just a game. Even if they participate, there is no power. A will to win.
At this time, the young novice monk without a certificate diligently brought some red blessing papers to Nangong Yue and his party. He was about to explain how to do it, but Bai Muyan enthusiastically snatched the words away and asked them to pray for blessings. Write the name of the person on the red paper, then tie the blessing stone that has been chanted and prayed, and then throw the red paper with the blessing stone tied to the tree. The one hanging at the highest point will be blessed by the Bodhisattva.
Finally, Bai Muyan added enthusiastically: "Everyone can take six blessing papers, donors must not be polite."
Wu Zheng nodded and said: "The donor is right."
Everyone in Nangong Yue’s group took a few blessing papers, and politely thanked Bai Muyan. Bai Muyan seemed to have received some great favor, smiling from ear to ear, while Bai Muxiao He kept silent, as if Bai Muyan was Nangong Yue's cousin and she was just a passerby.
After Nangong Yue wrote and thought for a while, she wrote Han Huaijun's name on the first piece of blessing paper, and the names of Xiao Yi, Lin Shi, Nangong Mu, Nangong Xin and Lin Jingchen on the other five pieces, and then they were separated. He tied the blessing paper to the blessing stone and prayed for a moment with his hands clasped together.
After that, she walked to a big tree and threw the blessing papers into the tree one after another.
Her strength is not very strong, and she is a woman, so naturally the throws are not too high. Fortunately, each one is thrown steadily onto the branches, which always feels like a good sign.
As for Xiao Yi, apart from giving one to Han Huaijun, the other five blessing papers all had the word "Nangong Yue" written on them. And with Xiao Yi's skill, he not only ensured that every blessing paper was hung on the tree, but even hung it at the highest point of every tree, causing Yuan Lingbai and Fu Yunhe who were hanging in front of him to jump, and finally they simply He hid under other trees.
The two smart people would never do such a stupid thing like fighting with their eldest brother.
Amidst the laughter, Han Qixia suddenly let out a low cry of annoyance. The lucky stone she threw failed to hang on the branch, and quickly fell down again, hitting her in front of her...
Han Qixia frowned and looked at the lucky stone that fell on the ground, and her heart couldn't help but thump.
Before, the blessing stones she threw for her father, mother and concubine were all hung firmly on the branches, but when it was the turn of her eldest brother Han Huaijun, this happened...
The eldest brother’s life and death are still unknown. Could it be that he is really...
Han Qixia bit her lower lip with a pale complexion. She leaned over to pick up the lucky stone and threw it up again with a little impatience, but——
Fu Shi fell from mid-air again.
Han Qixia's heart became more and more panicked and worried. Could this really be an ominous sign?
At this time, Fu Yunyan's crisp voice sounded from the side: "Cousin Xia, your strength is really weak, let me help you." She took the blessing stone and threw it up easily, and hung the blessing stone easily. On the tree.
Han Qixia finally breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone looked up at the lucky stone swaying in the wind, and they were overjoyed.
Bai Muxiao watched coldly from the beginning to the end, feeling it was funny in her heart. Everyone came here to pray. How could the Buddha bless so many people!
People still have to rely on themselves!
A sneer appeared at the corner of Bai Muxiao's mouth, a hint of self-confidence and pride, and a dazzling light burst out of her eyes... At this moment, a familiar female voice came from behind her:
"Your Highness, this is the prayer forest?...Buddhism is indeed very mysterious!"
Followed by a male voice, a voice that she could never mishear: "Girl in charge of clothes, is it possible that there are no temples in Baiyue?"
"We in Baiyue believe in Mazu..."
The following words could no longer reach Bai Muxiao's ears. Her body was as stiff as a sculpture.
The prayer forest is so big, so Nangong Yue and his party naturally saw the person coming and stepped forward to salute.
Han Lingfu looked at Nangong Yue and the others in surprise, then smiled gently and told them not to be polite.
Standing side by side with Han Lingfu is the dress of the Saint of Baiyue. Today's dress is still in a white dress with a veil. Her blue eyes and slim figure are so unique. , she seems to be a born luminous person, attracting countless eyes wherever she goes.
Behind them were several Baiyue envoys including Atachi, two ministers of the Lifan Yuan, and a group of guards accompanying them. They were a huge group of people, including the abbot of the Jialan Temple. Come and greet me in person.
Among everyone present, Bai Muyan was the only one who met Han Lingfu for the first time. She had long heard that the third prince was handsome, gentle and elegant, but she didn't expect that she was even three points better than the rumors... No wonder the eldest sister Bai Muxiao did not hesitate to become a concubine and marry into the third prince's house. Bai Muxiao's life is really good!
A trace of jealousy flashed in Bai Muyan's eyes. They were all girls from the Bai family, so why was it always Bai Muxiao who attracted the attention?
"Prince Zhennan, Crown Princess, I am honored to meet you two again." Bai Yi nodded to Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue with a smile, without bowing.
Nangong Yue nodded politely and said, "The dressmaker is polite."
There was a careless smile on Xiao Yi's lips. He held Nangong Yue's hand and quietly drew circles on her palm, paying no attention to the Baiyue people or even the third prince in front of him.
Such arrogance and arrogance made the accompanying Dayu officials and Baiyue people secretly speculate.
The other party's contemptuous attitude made the smile under the veil freeze for a moment, and he looked at Han Lingfu aggrievedly, but unexpectedly, Han Lingfu didn't seem to notice at all. He looked straight not far away, his eyes slightly Huge.
"Xiao... cough, Miss Bai!" Han Lingfu blurted out in surprise, staring at the slender and familiar back, "Why are you here too?"
Bai Yi followed Han Lingfu's gaze and saw Bai Muxiao's back in a light yellow dress. Although he didn't see her face, as a dancer, Wei Yi is extremely sensitive to people's figures. He also recognized that it was Miss Bai who performed a unique dance at the palace banquet that day and stole her grace.
After that day, Bao Yi also ordered Ata Chi to investigate the Bai girl, and found out that her name was Bai Muxiao, that she was just a commoner's daughter, that she was the cousin of the Princess of Zhennan, and that she Extraordinary in talent and learning, she is the third prince's confidante, knowing that she...
Although this Bai Muxiao is not well-known among the ladies of the royal capital, upon careful investigation, it is found that this woman is not simple. It is no wonder that she is loved by the third prince, Han Lingfu.
At this time, Bai Muxiao finally turned around slowly, and his complicated eyes wandered between Han Lingfu and Zhang Yi. Although the two of them were just standing side by side, her female intuition told her that something was wrong...
Bai Muxiao gathered his thoughts, walked forward slowly, and bowed respectfully: "I have met His Highness the Third Prince."
"Miss Bai, no courtesy." Han Lingfu said eagerly, looking at Bai Muxiao tenderly.
Following that, Han Lingfu turned to Bai Yi and said, "Miss Bai Yi, do you still remember Miss Bai..."
"Of course I remember. Miss Bai's superb dancing skills impressed Chen Yi." Wei Yi looked at Bai Muxiao, a complex light flashed in his blue eyes, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "I hope Chen Yi will I am honored to see Miss Bai dance again."
Bai Muxiao frowned slightly. She didn't like the other person's condescending attitude in commenting on her dance. She said lightly: "It's a pity that I don't have the opportunity to see the saint dance, but she must be the most beautiful girl in the world." ."
Her tone sounded neither happy nor angry. Those Baiyue envoys might have even thought that "beautiful" was a compliment, but Han Lingfu heard a faint sense of irony in it. Not only him, but also the other big people around him Yuuto naturally felt it too, and his expression was half-smiling.
A hint of dissatisfaction appeared in Han Lingfu's heart. Bai Muxiao had always known the general situation, but why did he seem so petty today? Everyone knew that she was his confidante, so acting like this would make others laugh at him.
Han Lingfu frowned slightly and said stiffly: "Miss Bai, you and the girl holding the clothes are both good at dancing. If you have the chance, you two should have a good competition."
Bai Yi smiled slightly and agreed: "Your Highness is right, it's time for Bai Yi to get close to Miss Bai." She raised her eyes, which seemed to the man to be a bit charming, but in the eyes of the man, Bai Muxiao seemed to be provocative!
Han Lingfu looked at Chen Yi with admiration and felt that Wei Yi was indeed a strange woman. Although she came from the southern barbarian Baiyue, she was well-educated and understood the principles of justice.
Knowing that Han Lingfu was like Bai Muxiao, how could he not see the admiration in Han Lingfu's eyes? In the past, he also viewed himself the same way.
He is tempted by this dress!
This thought made Bai Muxiao's face turn pale, his heart was frozen almost instantly, and his mood suddenly hit rock bottom.
She said to herself, she couldn’t cry! Men are nothing more than that!
Even him, the soul mate she once considered, could not withstand other temptations in the end...
Even if she almost died for this love, all she got in the end was betrayal...
She held back the sourness in her eyes, which seemed to be burning, astonishingly bright.
She took a deep breath and made a quick decision in her heart. She raised her eyes and said distantly: "Your Highness, the daughter of the common people will not 'trouble' His Highness and the Saint. Please leave first!"
She looked meaningfully between this pair of beauties who looked like a couple of gods. In the world of love, there was only room for two people. Since they were in love with each other, they had to quit by themselves!
After Fu Fu died, she could no longer look at Han Lingfu and turned away resolutely, leaving only his bleak back.
"Xiao'er..." Han Lingfu blurted out subconsciously. No matter how slow he was, he knew that Bai Muxiao's attitude was wrong at the moment.
Xiaoer just specifically mentioned herself and the Saint... Could it be that Xiaoer misunderstood?
Han Lingfu looked around hesitantly, clearly feeling the joking in everyone's eyes, but Xiaoer...
He hesitated for a moment, but after all he still couldn't let go of his arrogance as the third prince. He said to himself in his heart that it was not convenient for him to catch up now in full view of the public. He could only wait until he returned to the capital and then quietly find Xiao. Please explain. Xiaoer is not an unreasonable woman. As long as she explains it clearly to her, she will definitely understand.
Thinking about this, Han Lingfu managed to calm down, but the smile on his face looked unnatural.
After witnessing a good show, Nangong Yue curled her lips with interest.
In the previous life, Han Lingfu and Bai Muxiao were in love as strong as gold. I wonder if they can still be like this in this life?
Nangong Yue's thoughts only passed through her mind for a moment, and then she was forgotten. After resurrecting her life, these two people have nothing to do with her! Whether they will stay in love or fall apart is their own business.
Yuan Lingbai, Yuan Yuyi, and Fu Yunhe also said that they were very satisfied in their hearts. Now that the play was over, Yuan Lingbai said with a smile: "Cousin, you accompany the saint and the envoys to continue Let’s go shopping, we won’t bother you. After climbing the mountain for a long time, I’m almost exhausted, so I have to go to the wing to rest.”
Han Lingfu originally intended to invite them to visit the temple together and have a relationship with Xiao Yi, but since Yuan Lingbai said so, he could only go along with it.
The two groups of people separated. Xiao Yi asked the young novice monk to take them to the side room of the side hall to rest and eat some vegetarian food in the temple.
I don’t know if the vegetarian food in this temple is really good, or if they are really hungry, and they eat all the vegetarian food.
After taking away the dishes without a certificate, Yuan Yuyi couldn't help but said: "I heard that the Baiyue envoy once proposed to marry a saint at the palace banquet, right?" When they were just eating, Yuan Yuyi Yuyi had already thought of an "interesting" question, but in line with the principle of "no words when eating, no words when sleeping", she held back until now before speaking out.
"Yes, but the emperor has not expressed his position for the time being." Nangong Yue nodded.
"Then -" Yuan Yuyi deliberately protracted her voice and looked around at everyone mysteriously, "I think the 'friendship' between the saint and the third prince is not bad. Do you think it will..."
She stopped talking, but everyone knew that she was asking Saint Maiden Baiyi if she would get married to the third prince Han Lingfu!
Everyone looked at each other, it was really hard to say.
In any case, these three princes already have a main concubine. Even if Zhang Yi really marries the third prince, she will only be a side concubine at most...
However, with the status of this saint and Baiyue's current situation, no matter who she marries, she will just be a concubine or concubine, and she will not be able to stir up any excitement!
"Several donors, please drink some hot tea to relieve your hunger." Wu Zheng came into the room again and served them hot tea attentively, "Donors, do you want to take a walk in the back hill of our temple later? ”
When he said this, Fu Yunyan thought of something and couldn't wait to ask: "Little master, I remember that there is a forest in the back of your mountain, right?"
Wu Zheng smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into two crescents, and he said: "Young girl has a really good memory. There is indeed a forest of loquats in the back mountain of our temple. Several donors came by chance, and now all the loquats in the back mountain are bearing fruit. , each one is as round as an orange, and sweet as honey. They look good and taste sweet. If the donor is interested, you can go to the back mountain to pick some to eat."
Seeing Wu Zheng being so generous, Yuan Lingbai couldn't help but joke: "Little master, does your abbot know that you are so generous? If those pilgrims secretly picked all the loquats in your temple and sold them, What should we do?"
"Donor, don't worry. The loquats in our temple are blessed by the gods." Wu Zheng said somewhat proudly, yet somewhat mysteriously.
While leading the way for them, Wu Zheng talked about the legend about the loquat forest——
It is said that this loquat forest was left by the previous dynasty and has a history of at least more than a hundred years. The loquats in this forest are always picked and eaten by pilgrims, but there was a middle-aged man who came to the temple to offer incense. The businessman got greedy, so he secretly picked all the loquats in the middle of the night and sold them. As a result, he became seriously ill and saw many doctors who didn't take good care of them. In the end, he took out all the money from selling the loquats and gave them to the temple. After repairing the main hall, he recovered without medicine.
After this story spread, pilgrims felt that the loquats here were protected by Buddha and gods, so they came to taste them, but they no longer dared to be greedy.
Whether this little story was told deliberately by the temple to warn pilgrims, or to exaggerate the flavor of a legend, the group listened to it with great interest and walked out of the courtyard where the wing was located.
At this time, another little novice monk, who was eight or nine years old, ran over and said that the second senior brother had something to do with Wu Zheng. Wu Zheng apologized embarrassedly, and then left in a hurry.
The young novice performed a Buddhist ritual with one hand and said to Nangong Yue and the others: "The young monk has achieved wonderful results. Let the young monk take all the donors to the back mountain."
Go through a pine forest, then through a courtyard, around a small pond, and after walking out of the back door of the temple, you will find the loquat forest that Wu Zheng just mentioned.
But it turns out that as great as the hope is, there is also great disappointment.
This loquat forest occupies almost half of the back mountain. It looks lush and green at first glance, but the loquat trees are in the awkward period of flowering and bearing fruit. At this time, the loquats in the forest are only as big as a thumb, so there are no small ones. The size of the orange I just boasted about.
When Yuan Yuyi saw it, she couldn't help laughing, "Liu Niang, would you like to pick a sweet loquat to eat?"
Fu Yunyan was a little embarrassed, and the little novice monk Miaozheng was even more embarrassed than she was. From Yuan Yuyi's few words, he could probably guess that his junior brother was bragging again, no, it was a bit exaggerated. There is no malicious intent in this person without a certificate. He just likes to tell the truth from one point to the tenth when speaking, but his sweet words make the pilgrims happy, and no one cares about him.
Miao Zheng coughed dryly and said with some embarrassment: "In half a month, these loquats will be ready. I welcome several donors to come and taste them."
Nangong Yue, Yuan Yuyi and Han Qixia looked at each other. They might not be so interested in climbing the thousand stone steps just to eat a few loquats.
Fu Yunyan tried to restore her prestige. She looked around half a circle, fixed her eyes on the right front, pointed there and said: "Although there are no loquats to eat, it is good to look at the waterfall and enjoy the spring water."
Looking in the direction Fu Yunyan was pointing, he saw a small waterfall falling from a high place in the distance. It was so white that it was obvious that they couldn't hear the sound because they were far away, but just looking at the waterfall When you fall, you will feel like "flying down three thousand feet", and the sound of "water rushing" seems to echo in your ears.
Miaozheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and enthusiastically led them through the loquat forest to the stream behind the forest. They saw the clear stream flowing rapidly downward, with splashing water crystal clear in the sun, and then Falling like light rain.
Listening to the sound of gurgling water, it was like the most beautiful music of nature. Everyone could not help but relax, and their spirits were somewhat high.
Miaozheng pointed to the Nalian Waterfall in the distance and introduced: "The source of this stream is that waterfall. The spring water in the stream is very clear and sweet, and there are also some tea-loving pilgrims who come here to get the mountain spring water to make tea. ”
"This is a good idea." Fu Yunyan applauded, stroking his hands, "Sister Xi can't come today, how about we bring some of this mountain spring water back to make a gift for her?"
Although this mountain spring water is not valuable, it is a just right gift for Jiang Yixi, who is good at tea art, to make tea.
Everyone agreed enthusiastically. Fu Yunyan hurriedly asked Miaozheng to borrow the jar, and Miaozheng agreed enthusiastically.
Yuan Yuyi thought of something and said with a meaningful smile: "Liu Niang, you must remember to return the jar you borrowed in person!"
Nangong Yue is also very smart. When she heard it, she knew that Yuan Yuyi was using the story of loquat to warn Fu Yunyan, which made her laugh a little.
In fact, it is easy to return the jars and so on, but it is a bit hard to climb the thousand stone steps again.
But Fu Yunyan didn't care. These thousand steps were nothing to her.
Miaozheng waved his hands aside and said: "No need, girl, it's just a few jars, the lunch box is what our temple gave to the girl."
Fu Yunyan ran to get the jar. Everyone sat casually on the ground, listening to the sound of spring water and admiring the loquat forest. It was very comfortable.
Seeing no one around, Yuan Lingbai suddenly asked with a greedy face: "Brother, Xiao Hezi, when are you going to tell me about the war with the Nanman?" A few days ago, I was thinking about Xiao Yi and Fu Yunhe They had just returned home to reunite with their families. Yuan Lingbai was too embarrassed to come and bother him, but now he couldn't wait any longer.
Xiao Yi is interested in talking to Nangong Yue about those things. He can do it several times, but with Yuan Lingbai...
Forget it then!
After receiving the instructions from his elder brother's eyes, Fu Yunhe couldn't wait to raise his chest and said: "That's not easy, let me tell you in detail."
After Fu Yunhe returned to the royal capital, he was asked about it several times at home, but he didn't get tired of it, and once again spoke vividly, comparable to a storyteller.
He started talking about when they first arrived in Luoyue City. He talked about how they went to the Luoyue City camp to meet the soldiers, how they taught those thorns a lesson, and how they led a small team to fight several guerrillas with the Nanmanzi... …
Everyone listened with rapt attention. As Fu Yunhe spoke, their expressions sometimes became angry, sometimes happy, and sometimes tragic... Especially when Fu Yunhe said that after they conquered the Lingchuan Canyon, Tian He went to Fengjiang City to ask for support, but Zhen Zhen The King of Nan was indifferent, and finally planned to let his second son steal the military glory. The generals and soldiers in the entire military camp were furious and vowed to follow the prince Xiao Yi. Everyone was filled with indignation and blood boiled when they heard this.
Nangong Yue has actually heard Xiao Yi say these things once, but now she hears Fu Yunhe say it from his perspective again, and she has another strange feeling.
It turns out that this is how Xiao Yi looks like from other people's perspective!
Her Ayi is so outstanding and dazzling, like the rising sun in the sky, it is destined to emit thousands of rays of light and attract countless people to follow her!
While listening, she looked at Xiao Yi with her chin in her hands, her dark pupils showing a little glimmer of light.
Xiao Yi was extremely proud. He knew that the stinky girl would fall deeply in love with such a wise and powerful man!
Fu Yunyan had heard Fu Yunhe say it several times, but she was still very interested and couldn't stop.
Even the sound of the gurgling spring water seemed to be playing music for Fu Yunhe, flowing freely and making a fierce collision sound.
When Fu Yunhe said dryly that Xiao Yi imprisoned the Nanman Saint and the eldest prince Kui Lang together, the story came to an end. Yuan Lingbai felt a little unfinished after hearing this. He suddenly pulled off the jade pendant from his waist, threw it towards Fu Yunhe, and said jokingly: "Xiao Hezi, what you said is not bad. I will reward you!"
Fu Yunhe grabbed it, looked at the white jade pendant in his hand that was of good quality, cupped his fists and said rudely: "If you are greedy for money, you will not be polite..."
One sentence made the whole room burst into laughter. At this time, Miaozheng, who had gone to get the jars, came back with several young novices holding some jars. They were confused.
Except for the small interlude, the day passed very happily. Everyone returned to the royal capital before the sun set.
Unlike Nangong Yue and others who were happy, Bai Muxiao was in a heavy mood, and never showed a smile again. Even after returning to the Bai Mansion, she was still in a heavy mood.
The night was quiet, as if she knew she was in a bad mood, and there was not even a breath of wind around her.
Until the man appeared in front of her through the window, the originally lifeless world seemed to come alive again in an instant. The leaves rustled in the night wind, the insects chirped intermittently, and her heart was like stagnant water. The ripples arose again the moment I saw him.
Bai Muxiao felt complicated and said calmly: "His Highness already has a new person, why do you need to come to me, the old person, again?" There was a touch of sourness and grievance in her tone.
She was willing to be a concubine for him, how could he do this to her?
Han Lingfu frowned slightly and said to herself that Xiaoer was jealous because she cared about him. He said patiently: "Xiao'er, listen to me, the clothes girl and I are just acquaintances between gentlemen, and today is not..."
Friends between gentlemen? She should be regarded as a "confidante"! Bai Muxiao's eyes instantly turned cold, and she interrupted him coldly: "Your Highness, since you already have someone else in your heart, then we will be strangers in the world from now on, and we will have nothing to do with each other..."
"Xiao'er!" Han Lingfu looked at her in disbelief. He had worked so hard to get them together, but she actually said she wanted to give up so easily?
Why is his Xiaoer so ignorant? Why have you become the same as those ordinary girls?
Han Lingfu looked at Bai Muxiao deeply, his eyes were one part hurt, two parts tired, and three parts helpless...
